I prefer coilovers if you have the buget for them, if not good springs are great as well and there are a few choices availble in either one.

Personally I have had very good results with Hotchkis and B&G products. I have Tein SSP coilovers now but will be switching to B&G when available.

The main thing I look for in springs besides rates and drop it if linear or if they have a vairable rate(which is fine for most people but not if you are serious about hard core cornering)

Truthfully after you factor in shipping charges we're about the same. We also have free shipping on the Hotchkis springs.

do u guys accept the $50 toyota financial gift cards?

Just to set the record straight, I'm not hatin on TRDSparks, I'm actually glad that there is competition out there. Competition is good for everyone but the retailers. I'm also not sponsored by Anyone. This means that I have to go out and buy all the parts I want MYSELF. I'm just a guy that is looking for a product at a price that I can afford. The more money I save = the more parts I can buy, which makes me happy. I'm not trying to C*ck block or anything but there are many that are in the same boat that I'm in. I'm just trying to help some kids save some cash so they can buy more stuff. After saying that I'd like to answer your question.

Mcgeorgeparts.com does redem the Scion giftcertificate
Hotchks springs @ Mcgeorgeparts = 145 shipped
TRD springs @ Mcgeorgeparts = 144 + shipping

TRDSparks.com, I'm not sure if they are participating in this program or not. They do have a larger selection of aftermarket parts for the tC.
Hotchks springs @TRDSparks = 149.95 shipped
TRD springs @TRDSparks = 154 + shipping

I hope this answers your question. I also hope there are no hard feelings Josh. Also, Josh, would you or the company you work for, like to sponsor me?

If you can afford to get new shocks then HKS is the best choice
